Boro,
Congratulations!
You accomplished all that and still can type! You are a gifted Man. Keep on taking a 'bite' at a time on your restore.
Seriously, I have NEVER succeeded in getting my ole Clipper's rear drums off. I have a mechanic-friend 250 miles away with experience and equipment. Some day I will 'get 'er dun' with his help. My advantage from your situation is that my car drives AND the rear brakes DO work. I rebuilt the master cyl and front units. The driver side front cyl was corroded, inoperable, and pitted. DIY restoration goes one or two bites at a time. (A half a brake job that is functional, is better than NO brake job that is non-functional).
I am working on a formula for PATIENCE PILLS. As a DIY Packard Geek, I think I have found a market for them!!!
